Haile Church (No Dedication)

Haile Church, which has no dedication, is an 18th-century church that incorporates earlier fragments. It features a 19th-century porch, likely designed by Ferguson in 1882. The building is constructed of stone rubble with dressed stone and roughcast on the south and west sides, topped with a slate roof. It consists of a single vessel nave and chancel, along with a lean-to west porch. The nave has three bays, while the chancel is narrower with a single bay. Both sections have round-headed windows with large voussoirs and leaded glazing. The church has a plain cornice and coped gables with kneelers, an east gable cross, and a west gabled bellcote that includes two round-headed openings. The porch features two single-chamfered mullioned windows with three and two lights, and the entrance on the north side has moulded reveals. There are some 18th-century headstones on the south wall, and a headstone on the west wall commemorates John Ponsonby, who died in 1678, and features a good naive inscription. The south-east angle of the nave includes a fragment of an Anglo-Danish cross shaft as a quoin. The interior has not been inspected.
